Favorite place to get your shred on and why:
White face because the halfpipe is an awesome 24 feet! Close to Montréal and easy to get there.
What do you think you would be doing if you never found snowboarding? WWWOOOooo. That’s a good question because I found snowboarding. And I’ll never know what would I have done!!
If someone spread a rumor about you what would it be?
I’m an elastic, crazy little black man who’s not afraid of anything big! I love it!
If you could only listen to three bands for the rest of your life what would they be and why?
Offspring, System of a Down, Metallica
Words of wisdom?
Take good care when you’ll go play extreme!
Plans for this season?
Defend my title at white face in the superpipe
Shoot with piktur-this, and polar-media.
Take place in all the halfpipe events I hear from!
Best Party Story?
At Christmas, being invited to sing a song by the Ben Harper band. They played and I sang the best song I could. It was amazing, a freestyle positive rap of 5 minute with the crowd standing…wowww this is the best souvenir I ever had from a party!
Random thoughts and shout outs?
Congrats to Shaun White who’s got talent. This kid represents. I met him at the Westbeach Classic in Whistler in 1998. I was an up-coming pro rider and I was a tiny sick good little ripper who made his mark in the industry of snowboarding, and even now in skateboarding.
Kid, if you’re smart take your time, be serious and trust yourself.
Peace.
